so here is a serious question, and i was thinking about this alot,
what would you think about a VR-Café? like 30 stations with vr for gaming and 15 for chilling out and shit?
backstory:
i was trying out the HTC Vive with some demos, like walking around under water, 3d drawing, and my mind was blown.
not only does this have an amazing potential for gaming but for exploring and relaxing alike.
just imagine after a stressfull day you relax in a room of pillows and all you see is the ocean, animals and shit like that?
so what would you think about that? and what would you pay per hour/membership ? you think it's worth a shot?
I've also had this thought, but it just seems impractical. The technology isn't ready for it, and there's no telling what will be the odds of it being successful when it is.

HTC Vive will probably have a launch price of 750$ to 800$ this is affordable by most people, noone will want to relax in a cafe and pay an overpriced per hour price if they can do the same thing at home. Times of arcades are over

Probably be profitable for a short while 6 months maybe, then people will just buy in VR themselves.
Except I could see gaming if you did full body input and the VR headset and all that shit. But if the games coming out are not good bye bye business.
A decent idea would be a new tech VR arcade cabinet at like a mall or the movies.
Just my 2 cents, but I don't think it would catch on. At first many people would be curious, but as people see that VR isn't that great, it would just die out. Also, going to a cafe to play games/chill doesn't happen in the US too much.
Source: I have an oculus, isn't nearly as good as expected.

Terrible idea, VR is a meme and still in its infancy regardless of whatever company trying to sell their meme glasses says.
